I also got a great deal on it - so the price was worth the lower performance (compared to gen3 anyways).
Understood boss, glad to read it made perfect sense. The Gen 3 sit high up by the bumper whereas the Injens sit much lower. Anyways congrats on your purchase and do post up pics if you don't mind
